Get to know the Team!

Let’s introduce some of the team. . .

Hey there Michiana, I’m Steve Smith of Irish Realty and today I want to introduce you to the members of my team. 

Let’s start with Matt Kruyer. Matt has been with me for over six years now and brings 15 years of industry experience to the marketplace. Here’s something you might not know about Matt, Matt has a personal training degree from Ball State University and was a professional personal trainer before going full-time into real estate at the bottom of the 2008 Recession. Everybody else is getting out, this guy’s getting in; because he’s a beast!

Matt has been in the Real Estate industry for over ten years and loves sharing his passion for Michiana with others. Matt lives in Michiana with his wife, two children, two dogs and one very regal Holland lop rabbit. In his free time, he enjoys dining at local restaurants in the area with his family, watching basketball, and spending time at the beautiful beaches on Lake Michigan.

Let me introduce you to Brigid Beattie! The first thing you may not know about Brigid is that she and I have known each other since we were 3 years old. We went to Trinity School at Greenlawn together, but she went on to get her PhD in Slavic languages. So “Dasvidaniya”, Brigid and thanks for bringing your talents to the team. She is our dedicated buyer agent and nobody is better at winning in a multi-offer situation than Brigid.

A South Bend native, Brigid lives in Michiana with her husband, two sons, and two very well fed kitties. In her free time, you can find her at one of her favorite local restaurants, Roselily or the Crooked Ewe, playing frisbee golf, walking the Mishawaka Riverwalk, hiking St. Pat’s park, or visiting one of the many beaches or wineries in the area. Brigid is simply tenacious when it come to her clients. She does not give up in a tough situation and will work tirelessly for a solution. Her clients' happiness is of utmost importance to her.

Meet Blake Hitchcock! What you might not know about Blake is that he has a finance degree from the University of Texas El Paso and he is headed to Notre Dame’s Executive MBA program this fall. The guy is super smart but not only that, he’s dedicated to his community. He had years of service in the military doing multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan; disarming bombs to keep us safe back here in America. Now he’s working on keeping you safe by putting you in a home where you can have peace and lay your head at night.

Blake is a military veteran and finance major who combines his love for the real estate industry with his passion for helping people.
